Buy recommendations Firearms outlet Canada

Are they as bad to buy from as I've heard? I'm looking for a Henry long ranger in .308 for some moose hunting, and they're the only place in Canada I've found them in stock.

And yet there are dozens of cases of FOC online buyers having their cards compromised.

If you, and 30 other people all had your cards compromised immediately after buying from SFRC then I'd begin to think there's a correlation.

I'm not sure why you're denying what is a well known issue, that there was a systemic problem with FOC either a staff member or a service they used were compromised and it resulted in dozens of FOC clients getting their cards compromised. FOC took the airlines approach to conflict resolution by denying, and deflecting and refusing to admit there was an issue at all. I can't tell you how many people said when they reported it to FOC they heard "wow that's the first time I've heard of something like this". FOC must've had 30+ first times ever hearing about cards being compromised, and this issue went on for roughly 2 years.

That's a big issue to me. I don't fault anybody or any company for shit happening, because shit will happen. But I absolutely hold people and corporations accountable by their responses to shit happening and FOC gets a recurring failing grade
